Description of the problem | Transmission drops out of gear when starting up and transmission is cold. This is especially frequent when going up a grade no matter how slight. Sometimes the problem is so severe that it chirps the tires. Basically the vehicle stops until the transmission re-engages. The problem has been occurring for as long as i have owned the vehicle. I feel this hesitation is dangerous and causes an issue with durability. The dealership indicates that this issue is normal operation. However, my searches on the internet show that my complaint is not isolated. Please investigate this potentially dangerous problem. |
